One of the things thats happening is that so many of the Republican strategist on the talk shows seem like angry people, just plain angry people.

Best reason to vote for McCain/Palin.

Since you seem to think journalists know more then anyone else, shouldn't you be voting for McCain/Palin too.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, in the 30+ years that I have lived there, has endorsed ONE Republican, and that was for local office (County Executive). The fact that they endorse a Democrat for President is far from suprising.

Since Pittsburgh usually elects who the Post Gazette endorses, and Pittsburghs economy has been in the dumps for 15+ years, I'd say this is a reason not to vote for Obama.. Thanks OP for sharing though..

I have not had time to check the other papers.. it was just a cursory glance.
I noticed that too. I first noticed that some newspapers said he was best for Republicans. That confused me. Then, I clicked on and checked several, and they were all Republican primaries. This was before Obama was even chosen, so they are not current.

It'll be interesting to watch the flurry of endorsements over the next week.
